Yesterday at 11:20 PM, while working on my new guide, “Parking Horror”, in my new home office, I got a first refund request from a customer who bought my “All-Access Pass”. He is a customer who is staying in abroad. Here is what he sent in the mail: -—— Hi Arun, I have glanced through part of the content & a high level view of the section. It is more of personal experience blog with some minor insights along with more local experience with feelings narration....
While distributing our housewarming invitation card, we went to one of our relative’s houses. Who was staying in the rental property. As soon as we saw the house, we were impressed. It’s a brand new building… and that too for rental property. It was a very well-designed building. We told the same to our relatives as well. They told us we could not make this type of look to our house....
I was quite busy with the homewarming function arrangement and went to my hometown, so I couldn’t send any emails. As soon I returned home, I ordered 7 celing fans with remote online, which is required for our house. This is a great time to shop for products online, as some sellers reduce product prices, and you will also get discounts from banks. I recommend only a few items for you to buy online for your house....
We are trying to finish our pending housework for doing gruha pravesh next month. So we went to our regular hardware shop to bring plumbing fittings a few days back. When we went, the owner was not available in the shop. He went to his hometown for a function. Helpers showed a few plumbing fittings, but we didn’t finalise those products… We asked when the owner would come. They told me they would come after 4 days…...
The day before yesterday, I had an appointment with our astrologer to fix the gruha pravesh date for our house. The appointment is scheduled at 6:20PM. I planned to leave our house at 5:35pm. That day, Bangalore bandh was announced due to Cauvery issues. Only a few public transport are available. So I decided to take our car to avoid inconvenience. I sat inside the car and tried to start it… it didn’t start due to the battery being weak....
When you are ready to start house construction, you will start searching for a good building or labour contractor for your house. When you start enquiring about building contractors, you will be quoted different labour prices. Some contractors quote a little higher than other contractors for some reason. I’m not going to talk about those things here. Those important points are reserved for my upcoming Building Contractor Guide, where I share more details....
Yesterday, my brother went to the bike service centre to show some issues with my bike. As it was a little far… he handled such stuff. If it’s near, I handle it. The showroom guys suggested some other problems while checking the bike. Whatever the other issue they suggested it cost us - ₹9412. So what should we have done? Repair or take back the vehicle without fixing the suggested problem by the mechanic?...

When you are ready to start the house construction work, there are a few things you need to be aware of and a few things you need to arrange.

A few days back, me, my wife and my 1.8-year-old daughter were going on a bike to a nearby shop. Instead of going on the main road, we went on the inside road so traffic wouldn’t be there. I usually drive my bike slowly… like 30km speed. While going, if no traffic is there, I always look to the surrounding environment for inspiration. These days, it’s about building. There was a new building....
This is an advanced strategy… Experienced builders try to attempt this method. We tried to do this in our second building, but nearby store owners didn’t agree. The mason guy who came to our house informed me that the building owner gave 20 lakh to the material supplier store in one shot. The owner had a deal with the material supplier near their building to supply cement and steel at the same price till their house construction is over....
